People Watching Things Burn is a stylized visual experiment by Panaviscope, marking a shift toward a new aesthetic paradigm in his work. Drawing on the quirks and simplicity of early animation, the piece deliberately contrasts that nostalgic quality with the advanced possibilities of contemporary generative tools.
The composition reflects the artist’s desire to question his own practice and push the medium into new territory. The original soundtrack adds an oppressive atmosphere, incorporating percussive and atonal elements that underscore the tension present in both form and concept. Music by Panaviscope
